Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 45 years

On the fourth day of August, Prince Yong's Mansion

In the main hall of the dormitory, Mrs. Qian was kneeling in the center of the room. Mrs. Nian and Mrs. Niu Hulu all stared at her with unkind expressions. Only Shiyue looked at the inner hall from time to time.

"You are so courageous," Nian sighed heavily, "It's in vain that we trust you so much, but we did such a thing of flattery and seduction while the lord's medicine was not gone!"

"My servant was wronged, this servant didn't mean it," Qian raised a panicked face, "it's because the prince is so hot after taking the medicinal bath, this servant just wants to help him untie his collar—"

"Shut up!" Mrs. Niu Hulu interrupted Mrs. Qian, "My lord has been in bed for so many days, how can I have the strength to force you? You just tell me, did you have sex with the lord before?"

"I—" Qian was speechless for a moment, her face flushed.

Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned on the back of the chair and said, "Stop making such small calculations, not to mention the current physical condition of the prince, even if the servants went in to serve them before, there is no trace. Is your body broken? It’s not broken, just find a nanny to check it and you’ll know. I’m giving you face now because you saved the prince.”

"My servant, my servant is still a perfect body," Qian lowered her head, tears running down her face, "but this servant has absolutely no intention of seducing the prince, it's because this servant was confused for a while and dared not disobey the order of the master. I only ask my side concubine to grant my servant a death, and I don't want to discredit my parents, so I ask my concubine for her permission."

Nian smiled coldly, looked at Qian and remained silent.

Niu Hulu frowned and said, "It's easy for us to deal with her, but she was lying beside the lord in disheveled clothes, and was seen by many imperial doctors. If it spreads, people might say that we are in Prince Yong's mansion." It's ungrateful."

"My lord's illness has just started to improve." Shiyue also turned her head and said, "At this time, it's really not appropriate to have more gossip."

"I understand," Nian pinched the handkerchief to cover the corners of her lips, "find a yard to lock her up, and deal with it after the princess returns to the mansion. If she really hit her head and died, find a place to bury her first." Well, I will tell people later that this girl died of an illness when she was serving the lord. She left a great merit after her death, so it is not considered that our palace has treated her badly."

After listening to Concubine Nian's words, Qian's face turned ashen, and she collapsed on the ground. Two older nuns stepped into the room and dragged Qian out.

In the inner hall, although the fourth elder brother was in better spirits, he was tired after a whole night of tossing around. After Nian and the others greeted him, they drove everyone back to rest, and turned their heads to grab the disgusting Eunuch Su. Hands fell asleep peacefully.

In the midsummer of August, Prince Yong's condition finally improved, and everyone inside and outside the palace improved a lot following the expression of Lord Long Live.Only some people with ulterior motives remained, and they began to drill around inside and outside the court again.

Liuxiang Tea House

Ba Age, Nalan Kuixu, Elundai and others were sipping herbal tea, their expressions were quite relaxed, but their words were not relaxed.

"The fate of these four princes is really hard," Arsuna put down the tea cup, and gently opened the lid of the pot, "I think many ministers in the DPRK are willing to curry favor if they can escape from ascending to heaven after being infected with such a severe epidemic. "

"The emperor's attitude towards the fourth elder brother is right there. It's no wonder that the courtiers were moved after hearing the news." Orondai scraped off the tea powder, "However, the relationship between the prince and the fourth elder brother has not been clarified. Now, I only hope that Lord Belle's The planning did not come to nothing.”

"Brothers, don't worry." The eighth elder brother picked up the tea bowl and bent the corners of his lips, "Even if the second brother doesn't fight the fourth brother, he should know from this that Prince Yong, who has been forbearing all this time, is not blindfolded." Blind man. He knows better than anyone else how powerful Yuqing Palace is."

"Lord Baylor's arrangement is ingenious," Nalan Kui said from the sidelines, "Even if the fourth elder brother knows the truth, he has to be vigilant towards the prince. With the suspicious shadows of Ling Pu and Wang Yi in front, the current drama It also pierced the window paper between the prince and the fourth elder brother, so we don’t have to worry about being flanked by these two people all the time. It would be the best policy to let them face each other with swords and sit back and watch the tigers fight.”

"Brother, you're amazing." The eighth elder brother put down the tea bowl and leaned back on the chair, "Second brother and fourth brother are no better than other princes, and the reason behind this may not be hidden from them for long. Now that the fourth brother has recovered, if we let If he finds out the truth, he probably won't let it go, you brothers should be more careful when walking in the court hall."

"You don't have to worry about us, Lord Belle." Arzona poured some new tea for them. "On the contrary, you should pay more attention to Lord Belle."

In mid-August, Daliangzhuang in the suburbs of Beijing,

Shiyao walked into the house with the letter from Jingzhong, Xiaoyue of Fujin worked very hard, her body was not as good as Geng's recovery.

"My lord's condition has basically recovered," Shi Yao said with joy on her face, "The rewards given to the two young elder brothers in the palace have been sent to the palace in twos and threes. It is said that the warehouse is almost full."

Fu Jin leaned on the golden peony big pillow, and slightly bent the corners of his lips, "It's also God's favor, and now I just wait for the prince to submit an order and ask for a name for the two elder brothers."

"Our third elder brother is the prince's son, so he wants a noble name." Shi Yao brought a bowl of brown sugar and white fungus soup to Fujin, "At the beginning, the people in the house said that the second elder brother was a lucky child. Now From what I can see, our third elder brother's mental strength is no worse than Hongpan's."

"Okay," Fujin stirred the spoon, raised his brows lightly, "Gen's child is premature, ask the imperial doctor to take care of it more. Tell the people below not to always put several elder brothers together for comparison." , whoever is free to chew the root of his tongue will be driven out of the house directly!"

"Yes," Shi Yao blessed her body, and slowly stretched one hand into her sleeve, a hesitant look gradually appeared on her face.

Fujin glanced at her, frowned and said, "Is something wrong? Just speak up if you have something to say, don't hesitate."

Shi Yao pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then handed the letter hidden in her sleeve to Fujin, "Master Jiahui sent someone to deliver it, saying that Xiao Yuanzi did not seem to be the murderer of the prince. Moreover, recently -"

Seeing Fujin's gradually pale face, Shi Yao didn't dare to continue, and instead comforted her, "Master, don't worry too much. Su Peisheng locked up a few girls in our yard. It may not be because the prince suspects you. After all, the murderer hides deeply. You have to investigate one by one, don’t you? Besides, we clean up ourselves, and you just gave birth to the third elder brother, so we are not afraid of people’s gossip.”

"Su Peisheng won't find me for no reason," Fujin slowly shook his head, "There must be some reason..."

Shi Yao pursed her lips tightly, watching Fujin's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, she didn't dare to say anything for a while.

"Could it be—" Fujin suddenly remembered something, "No, it's impossible, that plate of white sugar cake was presented to me by my family. None of us knew that the prince would come over at that time..."

"White sugar cake?" Shi Yaozheng was stunned for a moment, "The plate of snacks that the eldest lady sent? Could it be that the eldest lady wanted to murder the master, but she didn't want the master to eat it, but let the prince who happened to come over use it."

"Impossible, even if the eldest sister-in-law has the heart, she doesn't have the guts." Fu Jin rubbed his chest with one hand, panting heavily while leaning on the pillow, "Unless—unless there is another person in my natal family who hates me to the bone, But he can go in and out of the kitchen without hindrance, and he can make Wu Yashi send me the plate of pastries without any doubt."

"Master said so," Shi Yao stepped forward to support Fujin, and said in a low voice, "Miss Jiayi?"

August eighteenth

The fourth elder brother, who had been lying on the bed for nearly 20 days, finally changed into his court clothes, and stood in front of Prince Yong's mansion in a heroic manner.

"You enter the palace with the master," the fourth elder brother grabbed a certain sixth-rank father-in-law who was about to run away, "who said before that you will never leave the palace?"

"Who said that?" Eunuch Su puffed up his cheeks, and glanced up and down, left and right, "Who is so self-willed to degenerate, willing to follow a foolish prince who is freely raped by a weak woman?"

"You talk nonsense again, be careful that the master will hit you hundreds of times!" The fourth elder brother stared angrily, "Turn around and refuse to admit what I said! If you don't go to the palace with the master, go back to the East Courtyard to write big characters, and give the promise of money to me!" Grandpa wrote it ten thousand times!"

"If you give me 1000 taels, I will keep my promise. If you don't give me a penny, I won't let anyone go out to look at the shop. I have been serving you for so many days, but I was not there for one night. You were slept by a woman. When you turn around, you won't let anyone go out." explain--"

"Shut up!" The fourth elder brother carried Su Wei into the carriage with one hand by the collar, "I told you a thousand times, that my master was on the drug at that time, and my mind was in a daze, besides, nothing happened at all. No matter how disgusting you are, I will ask Shuntian Mansion to seal up your two shops!"

The carriage wobbled all the way up the long street. On the way, Eunuch Su tried to jump out of the car and escape several times, but was arrested.

When the carriage heard the gate of the palace, many courtiers who came with them were already waiting under the carriage, and when the fourth elder brother got off the carriage, they all stepped forward and said, "My lord is blessed with great blessings, it is really a blessing for the Qing Dynasty."

Surrounded by the courtiers all the way to the gate of Rijing, the prince happened to come from Yuqing Palace, the two sides stood facing each other, and for a moment there was a clear barrier, and the fourth elder brother bowed down after a short pause, "My brother, to the prince Please."

"Fourth brother, get up," the prince helped the fourth elder brother up, with a slight smile on his lips, "The second brother is very pleased that the fourth brother is back to normal. Turning around, the second brother will hold a banquet in person to cheer for the fourth brother."

"Thank you second brother," the fourth elder brother bowed his head and cupped his hands again, the prince smiled and nodded.

The two get along harmoniously, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the crown prince and Prince Yong are somewhat different.

"Fourth brother has just recovered from a serious illness, and still enters the palace so diligently, the younger brothers really feel ashamed." On the other side, eighth brother came slowly from the corridor with ninth and tenth elder brothers behind him.

Su Wei saw the figure of the eighth elder brother, and a pair of big bright eyes flashed a cold light.

"The eighth brother is absurd," said the fourth elder brother with a sneer, "It is the duty of a courtier to listen to the government at the imperial gate. If you can't do any of the four words of loyalty, filial piety and brotherhood, wouldn't it be worth living in the world?"

"Fourth brother is seriously ill, it seems that I have a lot of emotions," said tenth elder brother, grinning his lips, "I heard that fourth brother's illness was cured by a coated maidservant in the fourth brother's house. It's a blessing in disguise, after resting on the bed for more than ten days, I can embrace a beautiful woman for nothing—"

"Yinyu!" Yinzhen secretly tugged Elder Brother Shi, only then did Elder Brother Shi realize that he had spoken too much, so he pursed his lips and stepped aside.

"Fourth brother, tenth brother is outspoken, don't take it to heart," eighth elder brother stepped forward, and cupped his hands at fourth elder brother with a stern expression.

"The imperial concubine Wen Xi left early, and the tenth elder has been left alone for too long." The fourth elder brother stepped forward, without even glancing at the eighth elder brother, and said directly to the tenth elder brother, "Long Zhang, I am you Fourth brother; in terms of title, I am the prince; if you speak disrespectfully in front of the courtiers today, you will lose face to Huang Ama! Where is the patriarchal residence?"
